Anonymous asked: I saw your post on judo. judo is a sport. it's what I've been doing for a long time & it helped me a lot. you shouldn't diss it just because it wasn't your favorite thing. I, personally, don't like lacrosse either, but I respect people that do. matches at judo are far more intense than lacrosse. I'm sorry about your eating disorder, but you shouldn't blame that on judo, there are many categories you can get in. +if someone attacks you, will you kick his ass or chase him around with a stick&ball?
i am going to blame it on judo because no where else in my life has anything emphasized on weight and size and cutting weight with the most impractical diet of starvation and over exercising. it is the sports fault and so many fucking things need to be changed about it.
do you know how many people have eating disorders because of sports like judo and wrestling? and jockeys and gymnasts and figure skaters. all these sports that focus on weight and your looks so much you’re forced to take drastic measures so often that it affects your mind set and it’s no longer drastic measures for the sport it’s you doing it because the way you’ve grown up in that sport has taught you you need to be smaller and you need to maintain weight and focus on what it is all the time.
and i am in the sports science program ok, so i have actually done research and reports and papers on this subject so yes i do know what i am talking about so no you can’t argue with me so no you should not message me back because i will just delete it because no more needs to be said on the subject.
and ok, for the last fucking time, I DON’T GIVE A SHIT IF YOU LIKE IT. if something scars someone for life and ruins their life, at no time will it ever be necessary to try and make them not be afraid or not hate that thing. never. especially when it’s just one sport and not something incredibly important in life.
and am i personally attacking YOU like you’re attacking me? or messaging YOU telling you i hate it like you’re messaging me? no. i am making posts on my own blog about my life experiences and the things that have affected me in good or bad ways. judo taught me about my weight and how to watch my calories, lacrosse taught me about keeping fit and being healthy. so fuck off.
(no judoka i know in real life is bothered by the fact i hate judo and none of them even know about the ED. even sensei’s know i hate it and they joke about it. so i really don’t see why you should give a shit. and again, i would use karate to defend myself so problem solved)
